They were supposed to balance the car better???
and the weight of the brakes weren't on the shock absorbers..
it seems to have been too hard for other car manufacturers
or too expensive..
cheers

I didn't need to be concerned.....that is a very smart-looking car.

BRMS look out of this world on this car. The straight lines of the BRM suit the straight lines of the car so well!

Really nice ride Costa. Looks great with the mags.
Noticed from the magazine cover, they must have got specially released out of sequence plates. We have a 69 kombi with original plates RPC.
